From 1up.com:

Microsoft has revealed that half of the 25 million Xbox Live users accounted for in the past fiscal year (ending June 30) are Gold subscribers, putting revenue from Gold subscriptions alone at $600 million for the last year. Add in revenue generated by sales of DLC, movies, and TV shows, and it looks like Xbox Live revenue topped a whopping $1 billion in a single fiscal year for the first time ever.

 

As Bloomberg reports, Microsoft says that sales of DLC, movies, and TV shows exceeded the revenue brought in from subscriptions for the first time this year. So if that subscription revenue totaled around $600 million, then it sounds like Xbox Live revenue in total must have topped the $1.2 billion mark.
